A small moment of glory

Posted on by

Matt Gemmell mentioned me in one of his postings :)

A while ago I had sent him a comment + fix about his iCal Birthday Shifter application, and he was kind enough to mention that in his posting.

By the way, his blog is really interesting! He’s a top Cocoa developer.

Now, the funny thing is, that I’m about to post my latest project… a cross-platform birthday manager application, for Linux, Windows and Mac OS X! :D

Thanks Matt!

Google project hosting

Posted on by

This is something that existed for a while but I just did not notice, at all: http://code.google.com/hosting/. You can host there any kind of project, open source of course, and you get for free:

  • Subversion
    • Password-protected;
    • Over a secure HTTPS connection for committers;
    • Also open to others to freely checkout using HTTP;
    • Browsable online, using something similar to websvn.
  • Issue tracking

Very neat! However, if I could make a wish, the only things that I would like to see there in the future are:

  • A wiki;
  • A project planner, similar to Trac.

I will upload there some of my own projects, for sure!
